Toki Pona Forums

Actually, there is... but it was just something I was playing with. I called it "hó ni" (toki pona). I haven't messed with it in months though. Syllables were consonant-vowel, using eight consonants and five vowels with three tones. I'd have to add something else to handle the new words t...
